I have had it not show on the chart but it will update my numbers. then all of a sudden it will show on the chart. that why i now open two windows. one with the fuel log then on the other i update the fuel log. then when the second window refreshes with the new fuel entry I can look at them side by side to see if i got a + or -

And not to discredit the Audi A4 at the top of the list. But with only 1 fuel logged in I dont count that one because I believe you should have at least 10 logs to be on any top 10 list. This will show that you can maintain your MPG

But keep it up and start climbing that list as I did.

I hit the "refresh" button (sometimes twice) before the graph updates.

Some of those top 10 guys have VERY questionable MPG numbers. One averages 30 mpg for many tanks, then has a 10k mpg tank entry (mistype?). Some fill at less than one gallon and log it. Maybe some ONLY log the good numbers and not all the tanks. Gotta take the top 10 with a grain of salt, throw out some, then you will find you are higher on the list.
